The project In Motherhood explores the intersection between motherhood and artistic creation, examining how the act of caregiving relates to healing, rest, and the complex dynamics of work and exhaustion in the role of the mother-artist. It arises from the urgency to redefine maternity as a valuable site for artistic practice, rather than a hindrance. In this regard, during my residency, I will adopt the concept of “residency in motherhood” inspired by Lenka Clayton’s project at www.artistresidencyinmotherhood.com.
